Hi Alex, Your syntax is incorrect, 1. /action syntax is: 'action <type> <id> <action> [parent-object identifiers] [attribute options]' 2. to see detailed help for this action do: 'help action vm vm2 start' or 'help action' 3. in your case /action syntax should be: 'action vm vm2 start ...' 4. also --host-identifier option is not available in this action, please use auto-completion or /help to see available options, for more details, see [1] [1] http://wiki.ovirt.org/wiki/CLI On 11/06/2012 12:46 AM, Alex Leonhardt wrote:
